Nobody likes being told that they are failing in life, so it is better to numb yourself and ignore the criticism. No one likes people talking badly about their nation no matter how true it is.Omg, please it’s constructive criticism. Ignoring the elephant in the room will not help. I’m a very proud Somali btw.
It takes a very strong person to acknowledge and accept their failings in life and an even stronger person to correct those wrongs.
